About this home

Quintessential and hip, this mid-century bungalow is peacefully perched in Malvern Hills, a hugely popular neighborhood in West Asheville known for its sidewalks, wide streets, walking trails, and neighborhood park. This cheerful bungalow offers a delightful blend of mid-century modern character, multi-functional spaces, and thoughtful updates. Inside, original knotty pine walls and built-in cabinetry preserve the warmth and character of the home’s original era, while two bedrooms and one bath are complemented by flexible living spaces, including a bright sunroom currently serving as a sewing room and office, plus a conditioned room in the basement that provides additional storage. Outside, a vibrant wildflower garden and a fully fenced yard create a magical backdrop for enjoying the welcoming screened porch, added in 2019. The home’s new owners will benefit from a decade of thoughtful stewardship and consistent updates. Highlights include a 2019 roof, 2018 furnace, 2025 gas fireplace logs, and a 2025 water heater. (A complete list of improvements is available for review.)

About Malvern

Hills

Malvern Hills, located between Haywood Road and the French Broad River, is a residential and park-adjacent Asheville neighborhood with mid-century ranch streetscapes and a greenway feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Malvern Hills Park entrance on Rumbough Place, where ballfields, playground energy, and dog-walker loops set the daily rhythm. Brick ranches and tidy bungalows sit on gently rolling blocks, with sidewalks that link to wooded edges and open lawns. The nearby RAD River Arts District adds studio doors, murals, and warehouse galleries to the backdrop. New Belgium Brewing Company and the River Arts District Studios anchor local culture with taproom patios and working-artist spaces. Haywood Road’s independent cafes and shops keep errands and meetups close to home.
